You can get anything from street food to fine dining \u2013 food is a big part of Thai culture. The city never sleeps, it really comes alive at night with vendors lining the streets, offering everything from noodle dishes to grilled seafood and even desserts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LE: What&#8217;s one delicacy you must try at a street market?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DC:<\/strong> It\u2019s hard to choose just one delicacy at the street market, but I think you can\u2019t go past crab omelette. Juicy chunks of crab meat in a fluffy omelette really hits the spot. Have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LE: What&#8217;s the best spot for rooftop views in Bangkok?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>DC:<\/strong> The best spot for a bird\u2019s-eye view of Bangkok is Penthouse Bar &amp; Grill.

You are greeted and looked after from the moment you arrive at the airport in Bangkok to catch the private jet to Koh Kood. Everything is taken care of and it\u2019s the best way to leave any troubles behind and relax. You are asked to move your clocks one hour forward so you get to make the most of the day. This means you head to bed early and wake up early. Plus, you&#8217;re encouraged to walk around barefoot to feel a sense of connection and grounding to the earth.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>The resort is surrounded by jungle so you instantly feel relaxed on arrival. There is nature everywhere you look. The sounds of the waves splashing against the shore, the leaves of the trees rustling and insects buzzing into the night, make you feel like you can switch off and be a part of nature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I love the breakfast buffet as well. There are plenty of healthy options to choose from, it&#8217;s the perfect way to start the day and fuel up for the endless array or resort activities available. You can do as much or as little as you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/au\/tv\/season-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1024x576.webp 1024w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-350x197.webp 350w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-768x432.webp 768w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1536x864.webp 1536w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1200x675.webp 1200w,https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1024x576.webp\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-350x197.webp 350w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj-1200x675.webp 1200w, https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/p87cnusabxo2xe3wtsj.webp 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" class=\"wp-image-3739 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Aerial view of a lush Thailand island, one of Diana Chan and Cameron Daddo&#039;s favourite spots to travel in Thailand - Luxury Escapes\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Aerial view of one of Thailand&#8217;s lush island paradises.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Discover more about Thailand on the new season of <em><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/au\/tv\/season-6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Luxury Escapes: The World\u2019s Best Holidays<\/a><\/em>, airing Tuesdays 8.30pm AEDT* on Foxtel Lifestyle and on demand on Binge and 10 Play. *Check your local TV listings for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ready to escape?<\/strong> Browse our Thailand offers <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/hotels\/country\/thailand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"lux_UI lux_offer_carousel\">\n\t\n\t<h3>Discover Thailand<\/h3>\t\n\t<section class=\"splide lux_offer_carousel_feed\" aria-label=\"Luxury Escapes: Discover Thailand\">\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__arrows\">\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--prev\"><\/button>\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--next\"><\/button>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<div class=\"splide__track\">\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__list\">\n\t\t\t\n<div id=\"offer_006RF00000OzF5QYAV\" class=\"splide__slide offer_item type_hotel cacheid_1eddc4b8edee8067ee5a06ab248e6412\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/us\/offer\/the-haven-khao-lak-thailand-asia\/006RF00000OzF5QYAV\" data-le=\"promo\" data-type=\"offer Flash carousel LuxPlus   \" data-name=\"The Haven Khao Lak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"offer_link_wrap\">\t<div class=\"offer_preview\">\n\t\t<figure><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_250\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp 250w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_400\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp 400w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_600\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp 600w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_800\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp 800w, https:\/\/images.luxuryescapes.com\/q_auto:eco,c_fill,g_auto,ar_16:9,w_1200\/7pp803k9lnh62b0p4oo.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 250px, 250px\" alt=\"The Haven Khao Lak, Khao Lak, Thailand\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\"><\/figure>\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"offer_details\">\n\t\t<div class=\"tags\"><\/div><div class=\"location\"><i><\/i><span>Khao Lak, Thailand<\/span><\/div><div class=\"name\">The Haven Khao Lak<\/div><div class=\"tagline\">Bestselling Khao Lak Beachside Oasis with Daily Breakfast, Nightly Dinner &#038;
